Hello,

I want to change the color of the BreadcrumbArea. This works fine if a breadcrumb is shown, but it doesn't work if no breadcrumb is shown. In that case the backgroundcolor of the entire page is shown. Can anyone tell me how to change the backgroundcolor of the BreadCrumbArea?

THX Frank

The breadcrumb area is only rendered if there are breadcrumbs -- this is why you don't see the breadcrumb background color when no breadcrumbs are shown.

Yes I know. And the empty area (if there are no breadcrumbs) has the background-color of the page. That area I want to give the same color as when there are breadcrumbs.

This would require a theme change...

You could update the Common/Master.master file in the theme and wrap the <asp:ContentPlaceHolder runat="server" ID="bbcr" /> control in a <div>...</div> tag that identifies the proper styles for both height (since it may have no content) and background color.

THX Ben,

I understand and will change the theme a little bit.
